A company developing a fitness machine designed specifically for use by the disabled has received a $525,000 investment.
The funding to Columbus, Ohio-based IncludeFitness comes in the form of debt and was sourced from four investors, according to a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The company’s “Access” exercise machine comes with several features intended to make it easier to use for people who are disabled, such as enhanced wheelchair stability. The Access also offers improved usability features that help users grip the machine’s bar, and a push-button system that makes it easier to select weight loads.
IncludeFitness’ website consists of little more than a video (see below) that shows mock-ups of the Access machine. J. Ryan Eder, a company official listed on the regulatory document, didn’t return a call.
“We are pushing hard to raise the capital & launch the product. It’s still a while away,” Eder wrote on the company’s YouTube page last year in response to an inquiry about The Access.
